35、梦想,所以她对别人是有激励和鼓舞作用的。B项“Ruiz一个鼓舞人心的女性”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选 B。CWith oil prices rising sharply this year, it seems remarkable to argue that water might one day be more expensive than oil. Jean-Louis Chaussade,the chief executive of the French utility company Suez, argues that water scarcity(不足)is now one of
36、the most pressing challenges facing many industries. He told the Financial Times last year that he foresaw one day water would be more precious than oil.It isnt only a growing world population that places demands on water - industries such as energy and agriculture are also consuming more and more.
37、The 2030 Water Resources Group, believes that by 2030 global demand will be 40 percent higher than it is today.The threat is now so acute that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in the US warned that disputes over water may lead to armed conflicts, particularly in areas such as Afri
38、ca and the Middle Fast. A three-year drought in South Africa caused a water crisis earlier this year, with officials warning they may have to shut off most of Cape Towns taps.The most valuable water in the world is what we actually consume. With petrol at roughly 1.29 a liter in the UK today, a bott
39、le of water from some of big-name branded companies can already be about three times more. And it is not going to get any cheaper. The days of relying on water flowing through our taps are coming to an end. Around the world. 2.1 billion people do not have immediate access to clean drinking water. An
40、d this isnt only a developing-world problem. In almost every country people have water stress.

44、ergy and agriculture are also consuming more and more.(不仅世界人口的增长对水资源产生了需求,诸如能源和农业等行业消耗的水资源也越来越多。)”可知本段主要在讲述水资源缺乏的原因。故选 B。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“may lead to armed conflicts(可能导致武装冲突)”可知对水资源的争夺会引起武装冲突,故disputes应有“争夺、抢夺”之意,B选项Argument.意为:争执,符合题意。故选B。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“Around the world. 2.1 billion people
45、do not have immediate access to clean drinking water.(全世界有21亿人不能立即获得干净的饮用水。)”可知全世界很多人喝不上干净的饮用水。故选A。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据文章的最后一段“Over the next ten years, if we do not come together to find answers to our water shortage. we will face major supply-related issues around the globe, not just with drinking water
46、 - our industries will be affected as well.(在接下来的十年里,如果我们不能齐心协力解决水资源短缺的问题。我们将在全球面临与水供应相关的重大问题,不仅仅是饮用水问题,我们的工业也将受到影响。)”可知作者写这篇文章的主要目的是告诉我们水资源短缺以及由此会产生的相关问题的一个严峻现状。故选D。DCreating a new gene in a single day could soon be possible. The technology could one day let researchers speedily rewrite genes, enab
47、ling them to make new medicines and fuels on the fly. Researchers have been able to make DNA since the 1970s. The traditional approach takes DNA nucleotides(核苷酸)and adds them, one by one, to a growing chain called an oligo(寡核苷酸)。But the process is typically slow and error-prone, limiting oligos to a
48、bout 200 letters-a tiny part of the thousands of letters that make up most genes.Over the decades, most researchers have settled on one particular polymerase(聚合酶),called TdT,because unlike others, it can attach new nucleotides to an oligo strand without following a DNA template strand. Scientists ha
49、ve tried for years to make TdT add one nucleotide at a time and stop, before repeating the process with a different nucleotide. But TdT doesnt work well with these modified nucleotides. “TdT is very picky. says Sebastian Palluk, a Ph. D. student. One such system, for example, required about an hour
50、to add each modified base, far too slow to be practical.Ultimately, the approach should be cheap, because TdT is easy to manufacture in bacteria. Its also fast. Most new nucleotides attach to the growing oligo in 10 to 20 seconds. For now,the step still takes a minute. So synthesizing a whole gene w
51、ill still likely take the better part of a day.The new approach is not quite ready. So far, the group has made oligos only 10 bases long. And there are still a few writing problems,as the approach was only 98% accurate at writing DNA, below the 99% accuracy of the traditional approach. In order to w
52、rite oligos up to 1000 bases long, the approach will likely need to be 99.9% accurate.12. What is the drawback of the traditional way of making DNA?A. It is too expensive.B. It is too hard to be carried out.C. It increases oligos to about 200 letters.D. It is too slow and there may be mistakes.13. W
53、hy have most researchers settled on TdT?A. Because it is cheap.B. Because it is easy to get.C. Because it is harmless to people.D. Because it is easy to control.14. What can we learn from the text?A. Researchers have been able to make DNA recently.B. The new approach is quite ready without any probl
54、em.C. There is still some work to do before the new approach is practical.D. To write oligos 1000 bases long, the approach needs to be 99% accurate.15. Where is this text most likely from?A. A magazine.B. A diary.C. A novel.D. A guidebook.【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A【解析】【分析】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家们正在尝试用一
55、个最新的方法来改写基因,如果成功,将可以在一天的时间里创造出一个新的基因,但目前该技术尚未成熟。【12题详解】细节理解题。由第二段最后一句话 “But the process is typically slow and error-prone, limiting oligos to about 200 letters-a tiny part of the thousands of letters that make up most genes.(但这个过程通常是缓慢而且容易出错的,限制寡核苷酸只有大约200个字母这只是组成大多数基因的数千个字母中的一小部分。)”可知传统重组基因方法的缺点是缓慢
56、且容易出错,故选 D。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句话“Over the decades, most researchers have settled on one particular polymerase(聚合酶),called TdT,because unlike others, it can attach new nucleotides to an oligo strand without following a DNA template strand.(在过去的几十年里,大多数研究人员都专注于一种特殊的聚合酶,称为TdT,因为与其他酶不同的是,它可以将新的核苷酸附着到寡
57、聚链上,而不需要附着在DNA模板链上。)”第三段第一句话“Ultimately, the approach should be cheap, because TdT is easy to manufacture in bacteria.(最终,这种方法应该是廉价的,因为TdT很容易在细菌中制造。)”可知研究人员专注于TdT的原因是因为TdT在细菌中很容易得到。故选 B。【14题详解】推理判断题。由文章最后一段的首句“The new approach is not quite ready.(新方法还不完全成熟。)”及最后一句“In order to write oligos up to 1000
58、 bases long, the approach will likely need to be 99.9% accurate.(为了写出1000个碱基长的寡核苷酸,这种方法可能需要99.9%的准确度。)”可以推断出这种基因重组的方法目前还不成熟,主要是精准度不够,由此可以推断出这种方法离正真应用到实际还需要进行很多的试验与研究工作。故选 C。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容可知本文为一篇科技说明文,讲述了科学家们正在尝试用一个最新的方法来改写基因,如果成功,将可以在一天的时间里创造出一个新的基因,由此可知本文最有可能出现在与科技相关的杂志上。故选 A。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.

66、详解】根据上文“When it comes to being more efficient at your job. you know the basics. But research shows a whole new side of productivity you may not have realized.(当你在工作中更有效率的时候,你知道基本原理。但研究表明,你可能还没有意识到生产率的全新一面)”结合后文主要说明了几个有助于高效的好习惯,可知E选项“看看这些天生高效的人所具有的习惯”符合语境,起到了总起下文的作用。故选E。【17题详解】根据小标题“Focus on being ha
67、ppier.(专注于变得更快乐)”以及后文“Even if a low mood does not completely disable you from functioning, it can decrease your productivity to make you far less efficient. Also, dont hesitate to seek help.

68、o new opportunities and necessary changes.( 即使低落的情绪不会让你完全丧失工作能力,它也会降低你的生产力,使你的效率大大降低。此外,不要犹豫寻求帮助。这不仅会帮助你实现更稳定的工作和生活的平衡,而且一个新的前景也可以为你打开新的机会和必要的改变)”可知,后文提到情绪低落会使效率降低,可推知反过来快乐的人工作效率更高,且D选项中happier与标题中happier相对应。故D选项“研究发现快乐的人工作效率更高”符合语境,故选D。【18题详解】根据上文“You know the countless benefits of exercise.(你知道运动有
69、无数好处)”以及后文“Even 30- minute bursts of moderate-to-high physical activity just three to four times a day can go a long way in helping you accomplish your personal and professional goals.

72、的长时间任务会导致你的效率和注意力下降。进行短暂的精神休息。相比之下,当我们进行“健康休息”时,我们会更专注于下一个工作。当我们试图不间断地持续工作在一个项目上时,我们的工作质量往往会恶化)”可知,本段讲有的工作需要全身心地投入,会很累,如果不间断地工作下去,效率会很低,这时需要我们身心都需要休息,且后文中Take brief mental breaks.与A选项中Take breaks相对应。故A选项“偶尔休息”符合语境,可作为本段小标题。故选A。【20题详解】根据上文“People believe the more we can do at once, the better. (人们相信我
73、们一次做的越多越好)”以及后文“In fact, the more we multitask, the less efficient and productive we become. Instead, to increase productivity, focus on one task at a time until its completed and then give all of your attention to the next task. (事实上,我们一心多用的次数越多,我们的效率和生产力就越低。相反,为了提高效率,一次只专注于一项任务,直到它完成,然后把所有的注意力放在下一
74、项任务上)”可知,上文提到人们认为同时做越多事越好,后文则说同时做很多事效率和创造力都降低了,可知前后为转折关系,说明情况正好相反,人们不应该一次性做很多事情。故C选项“然而,研究显示相反的结果”符合语境,故选C。第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。A woman was drowning and she put her hand in the air with her last energy.

94、. actually 38. to do 39. a 40. motivated 41. chances 42. devotion 43. waiting 44. or 45. what【解析】【分析】本文为议论文,讲述了时间的宝贵,建议我们今天的事情今天完成。【36题详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:如果你问我有什么事情是无论如何也不能做的,我能想到的第一件事就是“把今天的事推到明天”。此处为定语从句谓语动词,根据从句谓语动词ask可知,空处谓语动词需用一般现在时,主语that指代 the first thing 为第三人称单数,谓语动词需用comes。故填comes。【37题详解】考查副词。
95、句意:没有什么事情应该推迟,实际上也没有什么事情可以推迟。空处需用副词作状语修饰动词 postponed。故填actually。【38题详解】考查动词不定式。句意:如果你感到有做某事的冲动,这意味着你今天有一个特定的理由去做这件事,尽管你可能仍然不知道这个理由是什么。urge to do sth.做某事的冲动,此处需用动词不定式作后置定语修饰名词urge。故填to do。【39题详解】考查冠词。句意同上。空处泛指“一个特定的理由”,需用不定冠词a/an,certain是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以空处需用不定冠词a。故填a。40题详解】考查被动语态。句意:时不时地,你可能会被一些励志故事激励起来
96、。应用根据空后介词by可知,此处表示被激励,所以此处需用get done,空处需用过去分词motivated。故填motivated。【41题详解】考查名词的数。句意:但你很有可能并没有真正取得什么成就,尽管你曾经觉得自己充满了精力去做这些事情。由空后are可知,空处需用可数名词chance的复数形式chances作主语。故填chances。【42题详解】考查名词。句意:你真正需要的是付诸行动的决心。空处需用名词作表语,devote的名词为devotion“投入”,抽象名词,不可数。故填devotion。【43题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:不会永远有明天在那里等着你。本句已有谓语动词,所以空处
97、需用非谓语动词作后置定语修饰名词tomorrow,动词wait与tomorrow之间是主动关系,所以空处需用现在分词waiting作后置定语。故填waiting。【44题详解】考查固定短语。句意:如果你不乘还有时间抓住机会去完成今天应该完成的事情,总有一天你会发现自己已经没有时间去完成想完成的事。sooner or later 迟早,早晚;为固定短语。故填or。【45题详解】考查宾语从句。句意同上。空处需用连接词引导宾语从句,动词settle缺少宾语,指代事物,所以空处需用连接代词what引导宾语从句。故填what。第四部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节 应用文写作(满分15分)46. 假

113、分析】本文以人物为线索展开,作者结束表演返回家中,却发现一个大约12岁的头发凌乱、脸庞消瘦的小男孩想要偷走自己心爱的小提琴,他充满恐惧的眼神使得作者不忍责罚他,而是假借一个善意的谎言将小提琴送给了他。但事实上,男孩已经知道作者对他说了一个善意的谎言。【详解】1.段落续写:由第一段首句内容“几年后,我被邀请在一个高中生音乐比赛中担任评委。”,再结合第二段的开头可知,当年的男孩也来参加了比赛,故第一段的内容应该是描写作者认出这个男孩的情景以及男孩在比赛中的表现。由第二段首句内容“比赛结束后,“Michael”拿着一个小提琴盒跑了过来。”可知,第二段应该是描写男孩感谢作者当年的善举以及作者自身的感悟
